Mr. Speaker, I would like to thank my colleague for her ongoing advocacy on this issue. Addressing the ongoing violence against indigenous women, girls and 2SLGBTQI+ people is a whole-of-government approach that requires living up to our moral obligations as a country and the calls for justice. That is why in budget 2023 we have invested $125 million to implement the national action plan for MMIWG to ensure accountability by establishing an oversight mechanism and support the National Family and Survivors Circle. We will continue to work with families to ensure we address the issue of missing and murdered indigenous women and girls.
